The Blue Fairy Book, The Story of Pretty Goldilocks, sentence 66

Diamonds were as plentiful as pebbles, and the gold and silver, the beautiful dresses, the sweetmeats and pretty things that were everywhere quite amazed him; he thought to himself: “If the Princess consents to leave all this, and come with me to marry the King, he may think himself lucky!”

Who acts: Diamonds, Hark, Princess · What happens: be, amaze, think, consent, leave, come · To what, where: pretty things, Hark, this, King · Speech: someone speaks here
